Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) says he'll speak to fellow moderate Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) about supporting the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) reconciliation package.

The IRA, a compromise reconciliation package hammered out over months of negotiations between Manchin and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), would substantially change tax law in order to fund new climate policies and initiatives to reduce the federal deficit.
